    You don't want to skip the Praetorium cut-scenes, namely because they include your actual partymembers in them and that's something none of the other dungeons do. You can't replicate that in the Inn scenes (it will just show yourself).

    There is zero reason to speedrun Praetorium when you have WP. Just play it slow and normal.

    I was helping my fc member do Castrum and he made me skip the cutscenes. Told me to watch it at the inn I'm like this is only my 20th time watching the cutscene.

    I just tell people to watch what they want to watch.

    I don't care about the group's "time". It's not valuable, or they wouldn't be wasting it playing a video game. The story is good, and I am not going to support ruining a new player's experience because a bunch of people who are tired of the game but addicted or forcing themselves to play want to rush.

    Too bad.

    Usually when the healer say "Lay off and let the guy enjoy his cut scenes... God knows SOMEONE should enjoy this run" people are usually fine with it. Afterall, people deserve to enjoy going through instances at least once before "THE GRIND".

    What are static/FC/LS parties for? Apparently they aren't for people who want to group together with other people who all want to run dungeon content the exact same way every single time. With all the people that tell others to go watch the tivo in their innroom, and throw insane fits when they don't, that's apparently what DF pugs are for.

    Same reason why players that want to watch cutscenes don't use static/FC/LS.

    it makes more sense to have a static or full group from your own server for speed runs, then it does running story content for the story.

    It's not a speed run, it's a normal run. There's normal and then there's slow. Also I've done DF Castrum and Prae often back when it was relevant. You guys are the vocal minority! kekekke. But seriously, 90 percent (random percentage) of my df parties always want me to go as fast as possible as a tank.

    Bottom line is you can't change what players do. If you want to watch the CS go for it and if they want to just keep fighting without you that's fine as well. If you really want to do it under your conditions, then make your own group no matter which side you're on. Majority always wins out.

    SE should just give more seals for CS viewing for those 2 dungeons if there is a noob. Not the best "gameplay design" but oh well
